THE TOP 10 LINEAR VOLTAGE REGULATORS ACCORDING TO SNAPEDA

THE TOP 10 LINEAR VOLTAGE REGULATORS ACCORDING TO SNAPEDA

In electronics, linear voltage regulators are commonly used to stabilize voltages. Regardless of the input voltages or load conditions, they will provide fixed output voltages, thus protecting devices from fluctuating outputs, which can cause inefficient performance or even damage. When designing a power supply for an application that requires a small difference between its input …

How to Select a Voltage Regulator

How to Select a Voltage Regulator

All electronics projects need power. Power can come from either stored energy in a battery, or directly from mains AC voltage or DC power from renewable sources such as solar energy. Power Management ICs (PMICs)help manage the power requirements in a system including scaling voltages, battery charging, and DC-DC conversion. Choosing the right PMIC can make …

Fun with Voltage Regulators

Fun with Voltage Regulators

I’ve been spending a lot of time thinking about op amps and comparators lately. One of the common uses of an op amp is as a “unity gain” buffer, meaning that the output voltage is as close as possible to being the same as the input voltage. At a glance this might seem like a …

Ultra-low noise linear regulators for powering PLL/VCO and clocking ICs

Product How-to: Ultra-low noise linear regulators for powering PLL/VCO and clocking ICs

Wideband communication systems usually require an ultra-low noise regulator to power the VCOs and PLLs. The regulator must also be able to reject any ripple presented at its input. In a typical system, an ac input is converted to an isolated dc supply rail, –48-V, for example. This rail is then converted to an isolated …
